[QUOTE="Allthingsterrarium, post: 49009, member: 3930"] Hey guys! I just have a real quick question about a molting Brachypelma Boehmei or Mexican fireleg. I've had my little friend October for a little over two months now and he's still about 3 inches but looking slightly bigger so I have some reason to believe he molted. I tossed out the substrate and replaced it the other day so I didn't look for a shed exoskeleton. Anyway that's not important. What I would like to know is will there be a noticeable size increase after a single molt by a Mexican fireleg? I know they grow slowly and I would imagine they don't molt very often. I know that a male b. boehmei like October will reach about 5 or 6 inches and I'm not talking about changes that dramatic after just one molt but will his growth be obvious or will it be subtle?
